Good way to start would be to define what your project is supposed to do. Then start reading all the information you can about IPTV and figure out what all will your project implement.

If you've done it already, do share the information with us so that fellow engineers can offer help.

#-Link-Snipped-# Do you need to multicast TV channels to the offices and computer labs via the network? Or do you need to do some sorta of Digital Signage system where announcements are displayed?

Get vlc and start streaming some content onto some multicast IPs, then join the streams from different devices. We have vlc running on a Beaglebone Black running ubuntu for some test streams from a centralized headend to remote destinations.

IPTV will use H.264 content. If you do not have access to the network equipment, then you might experience some issues if there's congestion. Usually you'd want to mark the video with QoS and have all the routers and switches configured so the video gets higher priority than the regular data queues.

I'm assuming that you're not planning on using STBs or some middleware for this. Minerva would be a simple middleware for a small IPTV project.

You have the content side (usually H.264 multicast streams). I'd recommend SPTS streams for simplicity. Then you have the control plane things like channel changes, guide, encryption, etc... Tackle these basics before even thinking about VOD or features that add complications and cost.

I would like to share project scenario with you all
The project will be done in following steps
-Getting Channels Throgh Dish Antenna
-Using Headend and other evices to Throw these Channels to a Server
-Providing Services to the Client(On client end a VLC player will be installed for accessing these channels)
..
But Still i don't know that what devices should be used in the project
How the project will tends to completion
Except Linux which Server or application can be used as Server for Ease
..
i will Wait for Your Response
Thanks in Advance

Perhaps this is something that you are looking for - #-Link-Snipped-#? Looks like it is also available on the Raspberry Pi - you can consider using that for your server to make a low-cost solution.
